Guest guest Posted December 19, 2008 Report Share Posted December 19, 2008 Great, Dawn! Tell her also that those kids who get their live virus vaccines are putting HER at risk, and on down the line to her patients--like your son! And since she got the shot, she probably means injection (not telling you anything you don't know) so wish her good luck with that mercury and hope she doesn't become disabled and have to quit her job.

Guest guest Posted December 20, 2008 Report Share Posted December 20, 2008 Isn't the flumist the only live-virus version? So if she got the injection, then she got the killed virus. And like Winnie said, then comes the problem of mercury. I do this too, with people who come in contact with my preemie. I ask if anyone has had the flumist vax recently, and usually explain why. It's been a good opportunity for education.
